Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: openoffice.org-base

OOo package version : 1.2.4.1-1ubuntu2
Distro : Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron

Dates entered before a certain update (in may 08) are changed to the day
before ; data entered recently is not affected. (Data is entered in a
date field.)

Going back to Java Runtime Environment 1.5.0_15 instead of 1.6.0_04
corrects the dates.

Formatting the dates into decimal numbers displays numbers that do not
accord with Calc.

i.e. (I entered 26/05 a few days after 28/05) :

JRE 1.6     
new data  entered '26/05/08' is still  '26/05/08' -> '39592' in Base (in Calc 
this nb is 24/05/08)
old data  entered '28/05/08' is now '27/05/08' -> '39593' in Base (in Calc this 
nb is 25/05/08)

JRE 1.5     
new data  '26/05/08' (as entered) -> '39592' in Base (in Calc this nb is 
24/05/08)
old data  '28/05/08' (as entered) -> '39594' in Base (in Calc this nb is 
26/05/08)

I posted before in bug 238822 but it seems to be something different.
